🎸 Verse 1:
     G
You set your sights on me one night
                    D
When I was sad and lonely

We sang a song and before too long
                      G
I was thinkin' of you only
          G
You were soft and nice, I did not think twice
                        C
Cause attention I was cravin'
                     G
Without much ado, I ran straight through
     D                  G
The red flags you were wavin'

🎸 Verse 2:
      G
Hell hath no fire like blind desire
                          D
It's too late soon as it catches

Out of hand like a broken dam
                G
Or gasoline to matches
   G
I jumped right in when you pulled the pin
                  C
My higher self denyin'
                         G
Like a moth to flame, I set my aim
        D             G
On the red flags you were flyin'

🎸 Verse 3:
         G
Now you won't return and the silence burns
                     D
Of a warning, I'm reminded

"Be careful how you court" and now
                         G
With bitter tears, I'm blinded
   G
If I'd been whole in my mind and soul
                        C
I'da never dreamt of throwin'
                       G
My heart at you but I dove into
     D                   G
The red flags you were showin'


🎸 Verse 4:
     G
When I was young, seems I had no one
                          D
And my natural state was wishin'

You were like daylight after dark of night
                            G
Thought you had what I was missin'
      G
You dressed my wounds and you learned my tunes
                        C
And I thought I needed savin'
                             G
From a self-waged war, so I ran straight for
     D                  G
The red flags you were wavin'
